Pedro de Alcantara.

Close to Príncipe Real and Baixa, two of the most prominent historical and cultural areas in the center of Lisbon.Do not forget to drink an espresso in the café A Brasileira - a meeting point for intellectuals and poets of the nineteenth century, such as Fernando Pessoa. There are several buses and trams, and subway, 5 minutes away, although one can easily walk to the main points of the city.

Reviews of this property

We spent some days in the studio and really enjoyed the nice view of the kitchen-window. It is no worth cooking in the apartment as going out for lunch is really cheap and the kitchen is just equipped to prepare a quick sandwich or pasta, not a hole meal. Clean bathroom and rooms, only the bed is, in my opinion, very uncomfortable and not like written "getting out of the bed will be difficult" in a positive sense. Communication with the host was very easy, friendly and cooperative!!
For the last days we had to move to another apartment as they started with some demolition works next door. But this may occur at any place and WIMDU really did a good job to solve this problem. Thanks a lot for this!

The apartment is on the 2nd floor and located well where the restaurants as well as best ice cream parlour is. You need to be relatively fit to stay in this neighbourhood as there are a lot of steep gradients!

The apartment itself is ok we paid around £50 a night and for this price I was expecting more. The kitchen itself looks very nice however it was not well equipped with basic items such as bowls, salt and pepper, sugar not provided. This is a must as we had to then purchase from new even when staying just for three nights. The apartment bathroom needs toilet roll holder, there was some mould, also needs a place where you can place where you can put shampoo, soap etc. No toiletries are provided.

We did not manage to get the TV working but that was not the end of the world as we were on holiday - a message in portugese was mentioned on the screen which we couldn't understand and unfortunately was not fixed whilst on our stay. We were also charged 8 euros for the 3 nights and I have just realised now that it should have been 6 according to the description. A light was not working in the apartment as well.

Overall its an OK place to stay given the price maybe we have too much of a high expectation having stayed in 5 different countries with Wimdu. Some small improvements will go a big way.

Pretty little quiet apartment for two people. Thanks to good tips at the keys we found fast connection (bus, metro) in all directions. Apartment is really recommended because various objectives are really easy to reach on foot!

It was a pleasure to stay at Margaridas apartment. The apartment is fully equipped with everything I needed for my stay. The area the apartment is located at is one of my favorites. It's close to the jardim do principe real, to bairo alto as well as to the avenida liberdade. You can reach everything walking.
It was really easy and uncomplicated to arrange the check in and I was warmly welcomed by Filipe. He explained me the apartment and gave me a lot of recommendations to fully enjoy my stay. I couldn't have wished a better first meeting with a local. Thank you Filipe and Margarida!

The apartment we liked it quite well on the whole. The location is very good, all means of transport can be reached by short footpaths. Nevertheless, the apartment offers due to its location and protection against traffic noise. The apartment we found clean and tidy. The kitchen is concisely but adequately equipped. Who is used to having his own mattress and duvet for a double bed, which is missing here. Communication with the service was seamless, small problems were dealt with immediately. It is certainly sensible, this apartment to rent in the summer as well in Portugal generally a standard heater like in the colder part of Europe is not to be found.
The fact remains that we can recommend this apartment to other conditions (Daylight Saving Time).

Nice, clean and modern flat in between tiny roads not far away from Bairro Alto (when you know the right way, its less than 10 min to walk...). A Metro station as well as a supermarket are only a 10 minutes walk away. But sadly we couldn`t get any information about the location of the supermarket or any nearby helpful shops at the keyexchange from the responsible person.
Nevertheless the flat is equipped with many usefull things like hairdryer, hot iron, TV and free WIFI and it is located in a relatively quiet area of lisbon. The flat is in the second floor without elevator. The kitchen provides most of the needed cooking tools like pans, knives etc., but unfortunately we had to buy salt, oil vinegar and all the basic ingredients for cooking. There was no dish soap or cloth for cleaning the dishes or a regular soap in the bathroom. This was the only critics we have, thats why we give 4 out of 5 stars. Apart from that the flat is excellent.

Very friendly contact and easy communication in english with the contact person per email or message.

This is definitively a nice way to stay in Lisbon for a couple of days and a good chance to explore the city. thanks, alex and annette
